Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King

Chapter 896 896 Everyone Who Matters



Wolfe carefully examined the clothing, and noticed that not only did it have a basic protective charm woven into it, it also had a tracking spell on it that linked back to the hotel. Whether this was to protect guests or to protect the hotel from thefts was questionable, but someone would definitely notice if they left them in the room, when they weren’t expected to have local garb for the event.

“We will wear these. The hotel has a tracker on them, so it’s better that we wear them to the event, just to avoid suspicion. Wear the invisible armour that sits tight to the skin and put the clothing over the top. The latest_ep_sodes are on_the ovel(ꜰ)re.nt

There will likely be a lot of close contact today, and it would seem odd if we were blocking others from contact with our clothes. We want it to seem like we trust them at least a little bit.” Wolfe informed the witches.

Other than the fact that they were foreigners, there was no good reason for the Fallen Army to not trust them at this point. At least until someone pieced together Patriarch Noxus with Wolfe Noxus the Magi Patriarch.

They were aware of the species though they thought that the Magi were a Sect of reclusive human mages, and they had an agreement, as he had discovered in the Magic Kingdom.

So, even if they knew who he was, he wasn’t likely to be in imminent danger, but the chances that he would be able to get out of this world any time soon would become somewhere between slim and nonexistent.

They would want to talk to him, the first Magi Saint in centuries, and that would mean travelling all over the world and social functions, and attempts to make deals, and then the inevitable revelation that he knew that they were sending mages from another world to attack his house, which would be a giant mess, no matter how it was dealt with.

It was as though Wolfe were seeing the future, but he felt helpless to do anything about it.

The outcomes were already very much preordained, there was only one way that they could really go once they were set in motion. So, unless he did something highly inadvisable or unethical, he was going to need to order a new wardrobe.

If Cassie and Ella had realized that was his conclusion from that revelation they might have cried in frustration with him, but for the moment they were blissfully unaware that Wolfe had a good idea how the next few days were going to go, and that he had chosen not to say anything.

Once they were changed, Wolfe called in the maids to bring some evening snacks and juice for the two who were left behind, and then headed down to the main floor to meet with their escort for the evening, who was now joined by three bodyguards, and one man in the military uniform of a Fallen Army General.

Wolfe’s expression froze. He thought that he had at least a little longer before things went sideways, but if the man knew who he was, he didn’t say anything.

He wasn’t a Saint, but a Rank Six Unholy Magic User, and he would eventually see through Wolfe’s attempts to hide his power, but the corruption of the Lowest Planes on his central mana core seemed to be the part that had the General’s attention for the moment, and his expression was even more shocked than Wolfe’s.

“Emissary?” He asked, confused.

“No, Patriarch Wolfe Noxus.” Wolfe replied.

The General nodded immediately. “Of course, High One. Patriarch Noxus it is. It is an honour to have you here in town. Might I ask what brought you here?”

[Yup, he saw through us in about half a second.] Ella laughed in Wolfe’s head.

[In that case, we’re going to run with it and see what happens.] Wolfe replied.

“We were summoned to the Divine One’s home, and the return portal dropped us here instead of where we started.” Wolfe replied.

Wolfe hadn’t realized how many people were in the room until they all went silent and began to tremble in terror. But the General’s face remained in the same shocked state, before he recovered and nodded.

“That is known to happen. The Divine One sees little difference between the worlds of men so far beneath him.” The General agreed.

That wasn’t entirely true. The Divine One knew perfectly well which world was which, but Wolfe also understood that it enjoyed watching people struggle to get back home.

As they spoke, a half dozen more senior military officers, all dressed identically to Wolfe, but with their ranking badges on their collars, entered the room and stopped when they saw what looked like a confrontation between the General and someone who reeked of “Holy” Magic.

Then, a Rank Five Colonel pointed at Wolfe and gasped.

“Magi Saint. What are you doing here? Have you come to your senses and come to study the holy books of the Divine One?” The Colonel asked with hope in his eyes.

“I think that we need to step outside and erect a silence barrier before we continue, don’t you, Patriarch Noxus?” The General asked.

“That might be wise. We seem to be gathering some attention. I hadn’t thought that anyone would notice me so quickly, so I didn’t take any precautions.”

Ella and Cassie’s amusement echoed in his mind.

[You mean, you didn’t care enough to bother coming up with a solution. But why aren’t they attacking us? Aren’t they the enemy?] Ella asked.

[That is a REALLY long story. The answer is no, but also yes. But no.]

They moved the group to the courtyard, where Cassie brought up a soundproof barrier, and the Colonel moved to stand next to the General.

The General looked to his subordinate for answers.

“We were on an invasion mission to eliminate the feathered Demons at their castle, and one very irate Magi Saint came out and began to bombard our army for annoying him while he was studying in their library.

That would be Saint Wolfe Noxus, Or is it Overlord for Magi? Either way, our General at the time, the Eighth Rank King Contender who has been given the title Petros, invoked the ancient treaties, and an agreement was struck that we would halt our attack until he left, so long as he stopped his bombardment of our army.”

The General looked more confused than before by the time that the Colonel stopped talking.

“Why would an attack stop for one Magi? Simply extract him from the castle and continue?” The General asked, and Wolfe chuckled.

“See, he knows. We didn’t have the Capability. That Magi is a terrifying force of nature. Like the Demons, they have Mana Cores, so mana nullification doesn’t work on them. His mana pool is larger than our entire army had available to us. Even with the Grand Commander Petros involved, we couldn’t have removed him by force, even without the Demons’ laws of hospitality forcing them to get involved.” The Colonel explained.

“What were you doing in the Demon Realms?” The General asked, while Cassie and Ella gave Wolfe a look that said he was going to fill in those little details he conveniently forgot in his retelling of his time in the Demon Realms.

“They had an entire ancient repository of Magi knowledge stored for safekeeping. It was unsafe to move it, so I had to finish studying it all before I left.” Wolfe replied with a shrug. Read Web Novels Online Free – NovelFire Novel Fire – novelfire.net

“You know what? I will leave that for the Grand Commanders. Are you still interested in attending our social event?” The General asked.

“Very much so. Myself plus my wives are intrigued by the local culture and products of this place, and if we can safely and covertly do so, I intend to keep visiting and shopping for some time. As you may have learned, the Magi covet knowledge above all else.”

The two Fallen Army officers looked at Cassie and Ella, clearly questioning Wolfe’s dedication to knowledge when he travelled with two beautiful women, but they wisely chose not to say anything.

“In that case, please follow us.”
